Description
A-mazingSlow down, take a breath and wipe your eyes
Allow yourself to see
There are no straight lines
That help you to rush
To where you want to be.
In the winding path, that mystic old pattern
You’ll reveal what is for you
Look down at your feet
Get rid of those shoes
And feel just where you tread.
Find your own pace, look around, meditate your way
And as soon as you trust that sinuous line
It will allow you to enter
The only place you can ever unwind:
You’ll find yourself at the center.

I have walked labyrinths to meditate and it does exactly what the piece says. It is very old magic and very powerful for self revealing and healing.
This is a beautiful piece of poetry. I am confused ... are you the author and the artist? Who is Arte?
thanks!

Hi,
I really quite like this. There was a stanza in particular that 'tickled my fancy'.. It would have to be:
"In the winding path, that mystic old pattern
You’ll reveal what is for you
Look down at your feet
Get rid of those shoes
And feel just where you tread."
It gives a very strong, and positive message - And the portayal of it all is well thought out and delivered excellently. I look forward to reading more from you!

You’ll find yourself at the center."

That was actually pretty calming.
I think it's the solitude of a maze that lets us wash away
our problems.
Um, me thinks there's a typo in the last stanza...
Not really sure tho.
Um, this poem was beautiful and soothing.
Nice one

What a great message this delivers. Positive and power in just a few lines. Really well done. Minor spacing errors, but they are easliy overlooked.
